Costus
Hawaii Pharm
Overview
Hawaii Pharm's Costus supplement is an herbal extract whose effectiveness is primarily supported by preclinical animal and in vitro studies. While these indicate potential anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties, there is a distinct lack of human clinical trials to validate these effects, meaning its efficacy in humans is largely unproven.
The Good
Based on traditional uses for various ailments.
Potential anti-inflammatory effects observed in preclinical studies.
The Bad
Extremely high safety concerns due to potential aristolochic acid contamination.
Lack of robust human clinical efficacy data.
Unclear concentration of active components.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals interested in traditional herbal remedies, under professional guidance
Skip If: You are pregnant, breastfeeding, have liver or kidney issues, or are not consulting a healthcare provider due to aristolochic acid concerns.
